We have stayed at the Date Palm Inn now on three occasions whilst visiting Nizwa, most recently in May 2022. The establishment is just usually used by travelers as a budget, no-frills stop-gap... most guests that we have met there, arrive around 6pm and are gone by first light... But my family and I love this place... the rooms are basic but clean, there is good Wi-Fi connectivity, you can pre-book breakfast on the day of your arrival (that's because the workers have to go and buy the ingredients for the next morning), so we never do, also the kitchen is very basic to say the least. To be frank, the stay is not so much as a hotel stay, or even a guesthouse, but more like one of those stays around a distant distant uncle or auntie's house, workers are there but just pottering around minding there own business, and you are pretty much left to your own devices...we do help ourselves to the kettle and make a cuppa. The highlight for us is that the Inn has a small petty farm on-site, including goats, sheep, chicken, ducks, plus of course cats. My children aged 9 and 8 years old love this aspect of our stay, and the fact that they can get so up and close to the animals. The two workers that live on-site allowed my children access, this visit they helped to milk the goats and then bottle-fed the newly born kids... it was a truly amazing experience. The Date Palm Inn is centrally located, nestled within the heart of Nizwa old-town, taking a vehicle to the location can be a bit of a challenge navigating very narrow winding streets, but all part of the fun. For my family, staying at this hotel has very much become a feature of our visits to Nizwa, if you visit and stay be prepared for an amazing but basic experience!…
Il s’agit d’une maison omanaise transformée en chambres d’hôtes, le patron est très sympathique et disponible pour répondre aux questions. Il nous a bien conseillé pour les visites. La maison est idéalement située pour aller à pieds au souk. Quelques places disponibles devant la maison pour se garer.
in einer kleinen Strasse gelegen, ruhig, mit Mango- Papayabäumen, Palmen, eigene Hühner ( frische Eier zum Frühstück) verbrachte ich 5 Tage hier. Eine Küche, welche für Tee/Kaffee rund um die Uhr benutzt werden kann oder wenn man mal als Familie oder auch alleine sich mit takeaway gemütlich macht. Frühstück auf Wunsch erhältlich. Ausflüge und Tips vor Ort durch den Besitzer buchbar.
